Selecting the Top 3 Gunners Players to Select v Wolves? Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek

One key move in the Fantasy Premier League lineup of the week is to select zero Manchester City assets - and yes, even Haaland!

Our funds is required to go all-in on Arsenal assets as they face at home among the most struggling teams in English top-flight history.

It's true, City scored in five times on their most recent away fixture, but this time they meet Crystal Palace, a side with the second-best defence in the league for goals allowed and fourth-best in terms of expected goals conceded.

And Arsenal hosting Wolves is the kind of encounter you must exploit - the best team in the division against one lacking of form, quality and confidence.

The lineup of the gameweek is picked using current FPL prices to stay under a £100m budget, as if you were using a Free Hit.

How did Last Week's Squad Fare?

No captain return but big scores from Bruno Fernandes (18), Dias (14), Phil Foden (12) and Tarkowski (nine), along with a lucky 16-point Dewsbury-Hall substitute cameo resulted in a huge 83 points. Success!

Fantasy Premier League Lineup of the Gameweek for Fixture 16

Keeper and Defence

Robin Roefs, the Black Cats, keeper, £4.7m - Newcastle (h)

This long-awaited derby in the Premier League for eight years is set to be noisy, passionate, combative - and it could be one of those matches that is all drama but little clear chances.

Which would make Roefs, ranked third in the FPL goalkeeper standings, a solid option.

White, Arsenal, £5.2m - Wolves (home)

An Gunners defensive asset is a must for this fixture. Wolverhampton have one goal away from home so far and one in their last six fixtures.

Ben White is a excellent offensive threat when he is given his chance. He started the past two at full-back, registered a 14-point return against the Bees and tops the way in that period among Arsenal defensive players with two big chances created, 2 shots in the box and an expected goal involvement of 0.7.

Marc Cucurella, Chelsea, £6.2m - Everton (h)

The Toffees are erratic so this pick is more about Chelseadefence and the Spaniard's potential.

The London club have the fourth-strongest defensive record while he has created more opportunities (19) than any other defender in the league.

And he is yet to score this season, after scoring five times the previous campaign.

Dalot, Manchester United, £4.4m - the Cherries (h)

You can't have great hopes for a United shutout - they have just one this entire campaign - but the Cherries'scoring have dried up in the last two games.

Crucially, Dalot has been occupying some incredibly advanced roles as left wing-back in the past 3 fixtures.

In those matches he's had 4 shots, 2 clear opportunities, one goal and an assist. He missed a great chance at Wolves on Monday as well.

Midfield Picks

Saka (C), the Gunners, £10.2m - Wolverhampton (h)

This game against Wolverhampton is too juicy to ignore and that renders Bukayo Saka, Arsenalbest offensive asset essential.

No stats required to support this pick. United had 27 shots at Wolverhampton on Monday night, scored 4 and might have had twice as many.

Arsenal will be keen to attack.

Declan Rice, Arsenal, £7.1m - Wolverhampton (home)

Just a single point behind Fernandes in the FPL midfielder standings, Declan Rice is incredibly consistent for the Gunners.

More advanced this term, he's created more opportunities than any other Gunners teammate (27) and has five assists to show for it.

He's also the most reliable for minutes as the manager could see this fixture as a chance to rest his squad.

Fernandes, Manchester United, £9m - Bournemouth (h)

Fernandes may have replaced Semenyo as the essential Fantasy Premier League midfield asset.

Fixture-proof, always a shout for defensive bonus points and with several ways to FPL returns.

Cole Palmer, Chelsea, £10.3m - the Toffees (home)

This week's punt, Palmer has his first full ninety minutes since returning after a lengthy layoff and we are aware what an explosive fantasy player he is capable of being.

You get the feeling that, as quickly as he has one good game, FPL managers will be flocking to bring him in.

He was absent for ChelseaEuropean loss at Atalanta, but that was the club managing his minutes so he ought to be fresh for the Toffees.

Ouattara, Brentford, £6m - Leeds (h)

Leeds United come into this game following two strong home results against Chelsea and the Reds, but on the road they have let in three times for each one they've scored.

This is likely Ouattara final match before departing for the Africa Cup of Nations.

He's been excellent for the Bees this term, and has 5 attacking returns in his last three home matches.

Forwards

Thiago, the Bees, £6.9m - Leeds United (home)

It's been a frustrating couple of gameweeks for Thiago FPL managers, with just 3 points in two matches.

Nevertheless, he's the second-highest goal scorer in the division and has seven goals in 7 fixtures at home. He is the prime striker choice for this round and, with a kind fixture list, you can select and hold until the end of January at the very least.

Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool, £8.4m - Brighton & Hove Albion (home)

It is expected that the manager keeps faith with the promising striker, after his brace performance at Leeds.

He was well at the start of the campaign and you can't help but think what he would have done had a rival striker not arrived and competed with him for playing time at centre-forward.
